    overwatch pro players be like "pfftt this character is so broken and easy to play" then don't know how to play them and sucks at them

  • TheNegiBear 🏳️‍🌈 Negi Bear (COMMISSIONS OPEN) 🏳️‍🌈🔞 (@TheNegiBear) reported

    I don't want to play overwatch with strangers anymore... is full of trolls and people with anger issues

  • Sharessan Cher Tailor, Black Lives Matter (@Sharessan) reported

    @magnavancia It's in the comics, but the main issue is the same issue as all Overwatch lore--there's not a lot, so it's Blizzard's own fault they don't have more stuff to talk about. :P

  • wasted_1337 Wasted 👑 (@wasted_1337) reported

    @CSGO Maybe fix overwatch... there are only banned players rn so you are just seeing old cases, you can spin on your main Accounts and you wont get banned.

  • Jasonimusprime Jason (he/him) (@Jasonimusprime) reported

    Ha! My issues with sucking at Overwatch are fixed! My right thumbstick is starting to drift so I won't play any more. Hopefully if I stop now I won't have ruined it for Minecraft.

  • Desperado_Dave Desperado Dave (@Desperado_Dave) reported

    @UrlishIdiot @JELKK11 Please don't give me a reason to play HotS... I'm still terrified they'll bring me back to Overwatch with a Crash skin for Junkrat.

  • Lag_Dan Megumin (Lag-Dan) (@Lag_Dan) reported

    @SenPie_ Overwatch Twitter is something else I swear. I sleep for like 4 hours and I’ve no context to anything. Issue with being eu is all the idiots over in NA have drama while we are asleep then we wake up and see the TL in ruins again :/

  • AlphaBorc Bully Bear (@AlphaBorc) reported

    @BoiBristol It's the same problem I had with overwatch, really. I was positively terrible at it.

  • LucasCampanha4 Mr. Lucky (@LucasCampanha4) reported

    @luckeRRR_ Pls no, look at Overwatch issues

  • Dragonogon 🏳️‍🌈Dragonogon🏳️‍⚧️🐲 (@Dragonogon) reported

    @Nonintitlement Again, its not just an issue with the TF2 community. Ive seen similar things happen with call of duty, overwatch, fortnite, and plenty others. Blaming just the TF2 community isn't the way to go. Instead, it needs to be addressed within each individual community by companies.

  • cllvdiii Muf? (@cllvdiii) reported

    My ps4 fan is fcking broken and i havent played overwatch in a week this has been the longest time ive been away from overwatch this is day 7 without overwatch and im really fcking bored

  • CoachSuperbeast Superbeast (@CoachSuperbeast) reported

    @ZenoKagemaru @SparklyNitch @OWAnonymous_ “Types like me,” as in the competent portion of the Overwatch fanbase? Ignoring the brig conversation for a second, you don’t know more than the pros. If the pros say that brig is or was broken, then she is or was. They are the best in the world, they know more than you, period.

  • Hoebeesbing Hobbes meow (@Hoebeesbing) reported

    @TheKally_ @OWJaeger I don't see it being a huge issue as overwatch fights already snowball fast, most characters can carry a fight with duel win + decent ult and getting out on a lost fights is not a huge deal compared to dying fast

  • PaperFoxx Foxxy (@PaperFoxx) reported

    finding out that gerard way played overwatch with steve aoki has broken my brain

  • MKDcram Mekhi Kunzer-Deleon (@MKDcram) reported

    @PlayOverwatch I have been suspended from overwatch for 8 hrs. because I was lagging out and my internet connection has been bad lately is there anything I can do so this doesn't happen again and is there any way of me getting un suspended

  • Arx_UK Arx 💤 (@Arx_UK) reported

    That produces a stale meta where only the hard and OP heroes are viable, so you get mirror matchups in every game featuring only a handful of heroes. It's lucky Overwatch allows 1 of each hero per team and not per game, or you would really see the problems with this mentality.

  • DaiquiriPanda Red Hair/Don't Care (@DaiquiriPanda) reported

    My PC... Overheats and starts lagging within 20 minutes of me booting up Overwatch. Anyone have any suggestions on what to do?

  • kiandymundi 🟡 Kiandy (@kiandymundi) reported

    Nvm, not played in months, rusty, this game has zero margin for error, if you're not a CSGO godking, even unranked will be too serious and unforgiving Not a single enemy bullet missed, it's like their aimbotting OR JUST that good Back to Overwatch where I can spray

  • vv_bun bun 🐰 (@vv_bun) reported

    i played 8 hours of overwatch and now it's not working as a distraction because i got too used to it and every match got bland

  • KTN_Senpai 🌸 ブライス 狼 🌸 (@KTN_Senpai) reported

    @PlayOverwatch Overwatch is broken cant even get into any games

  • StefanSpring1 StefanSpring (@StefanSpring1) reported

    Thx #Blizzard for banning my #Overwatch acc. permanently! This Game has anyway a big problem with arbitrarily reports, because people can´t lose and blaming others! But a Game and Community is always that good, as Publisher is! Want my money back! #NOGG

  • OwSnaps Snaps (@OwSnaps) reported
